What this hardware actually means
Editorial interpretation generated from the device's self-reported fields and our SoC tier database. Cross-reference with the raw fields below; if you spot a contradiction, please tell us.
Platform & performance positioning
The samsung SM-A256E reports its platform as Exynos 1280. The CPU configuration is 8-core, Cortex-A78 Cortex-A55, running up to 533 - 2400 MHz. The GPU is ARM Mali-G68 MP4. Without a confirmed SoC tier mapping for this platform string, we treat the device as unverified. If you're using this entry to compare against a phone you're inspecting, focus on the raw fields below rather than tier-level conclusions.
Day-to-day workload
6 GB LPDDR4X of RAM is adequate for mainstream daily use; modern games may benefit from closing background apps. Display resolution is 2340x1080.
This record reflects Android API level 36 (16). Android 14 or newer — modern security baseline, supported by all current banking and payment apps.
Trust & buying notes
For a second-hand purchase, also verify the security patch date is no more than ~12 months old, the boot count is plausible for the claimed age, and battery health is above 85%.
